Who is James K. Polk? Yeah... we know. No one talks about him! Often ranked as one of the most effective presidents and yet largely unknown. We're trying to correct that, so in this episode we discuss...
Polk's family and upbringing, a brief stint in the military, an early start to a political career, his election to the US House of Representatives, a successful run for Speaker of the House, Polk's becomes governor, and more!We'll pick it up from there in the next episode!
